Having configured my Qnap Turbo Nas last week, I was looking for a way to upload pictures directly from my Iphone to Qnap. Doing it through FTP sounded like the best option.
All I needed was an Iphone app for FTP uploads. Now there are quite a few apps for iphone, but I was looking for something that would be
1. Free
2. Allow for multiple files upload, and not having to select 1 file at a time.
3. able to detect new files and prompt for upload.
After checking several apps, I zeroed in on MediaTransfer. This is a great app and has all the functions I need.
1. Download Media Transfer using your App Browser
2. Tap the icon to run the program To access settings, swipe your finger up the screen.
3. Give your FTP server address , user name and password. I Kept the passive transfer On.
Voila ! That’s it . next time you open the program, it will scan all your new media and upload it to your Ftp server.
Qnap also has free iphone app for uploading photos (to multimedia station only). http://docs.qnap.com/nas/en/index.html?qmobile.htm
Yes, Qphone is a good application for viewing the photos on your iphone, but the upload function sucks. It doesn’t detect automatically the new media in your photoroll and multiple file uploading is a pain.
But for viewing your media files, it’s a great app.
Good
The app doesn’t seem to be free anymore
I just checked it and you are right, it’s a paid app now :-(. I still use it because I downloaded it when it used to be free.
